About This Item
London, U.K.: Rodale Press, 1957. This book is a beauty. Each litho is worth the price of the book. Both the front and the back boards are lithos also. Dj leaves a bit to be desired with some light soil, a toned spine, several very small edge tears, and three one inch edge tears. Boards have very light wear at the extremities, and there is a former owner's bookplate on the front pastedown.. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/Fair. Illus. by Rossem, Ru van . 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
